Positioned a regional urgent-care coalition in front of state and federal policymakers.

I led advocacy and policy engagement for NERUCA, positioning urgent care centers as essential to the healthcare delivery system. Drawing on years navigating state and federal regulatory landscapes — and deep relationships across policymakers, associations, and community leaders — I made sure NERUCA's priorities were heard and acted on, translating complex healthcare policy into compelling narratives from reimbursement reform to patient access.
